ridethepig | AUD Macro Updates Via Coronavirus Impact
Updated
On the macro chart we are still chopping around the same lows that will mark the ending of a currency cycle alongside a turn in commodities. The coronavirus expectation and impact legs are short-circuiting the reflationary trade that markets were so eager to jump on board with towards the back-end of 2019.
Sadly numbers outside of China keep growing and economic impact is entering under the spotlight. As long as things do not improve on the virus front we are going to see a major flush down in AUD and continuation of the same USD bid. Tracking closely the open today, smells like Tokyo are going to ring the risk alarms.
A rather wild week on the technical side after a significant break through the 0.670x support, this is unlocking a test of 0.645x RBA floor via rate differential. This move looks particularly vulnerable considering where we are with Copper and Iron ore:
Good luck all those in AUD or looking to add positions. Actively looking to add shorts on any spikes into 0.670x or even front running with 0.668x, a waterfall breakdown is in play until we will see some local exporter buying interest which is initially found at 0.645x and 0.632x.
